What do you recommend for my car. I like the dark wheels and something concave would be sweet! Maybe 19x8.5 fronts and 19x11 rears so I can fit a 315 drag radial on the rear. Let me know...

Get me some options! I would certainly be interested for the right set.

Would you better like a mesh or for example a five-spoke setup? We are thinking matte black or titanium graphite with hand painted white centers, plus machined stripe. Would you wanna go monoblock or three piece?

I am thinking MB1's with a finish like this and a drag fitment as we did on this Corvette Z06. What do you think?

That first Zo6 looks great, minus the red accents for my car. I think that I would like those and also would love to see a 5 spoke in titanium graphite in a monoblock as well. I am not sure what offsets I have or anything, but I would like to run a 19x8 front and a 19x10.5 rear so I can fit a Mickey Thompson ET Street II drag radial in 305-35-19 on the rear. What are your thoughts?

Definitely got that. We take care of the offsets and make the wheel setup completely custom for what you need. Would you consinder 20/19 setup then? Here is how our five-spoke monblock wheels look like, with the desired finish as well.





D2FORGED MB2 in Titanium Graphite



Or if you'd like to go with a lighter finish we have interesting ideas regarding that as well.
